You know, life is, you know, to me,
it's always the journey, not just the destination.
And your journey has been a hell of a journey.
Like you said, you know,
the Fenway parks and now this cruise type stuff.
Do you like the unorthodox fights?
Like, when you're in the ring, like,
did you even know you're in Fenway?
Like, does everything get shut off after?
Like, once you're in the cage,
because you are getting these sort of unorthodox type of bouts.
And I want, there's so much I want to ask you, Kai, but.
Where are you fighting?
Like, is it going to be in the Bahamas?
Are you guys going to be docked?
Are you actually going to be sailing?
Like, have they told you?
Like, how is this actually going to work for your fight?
Like, is it, all right, we're going to sail.
Then we're going to stop.
We're going to do the fight.
Like, how is it going to work?
See, I'm actually, you know, that's part of my battle, man.
That's part of my battle.
I need information.
I need to know which one.
Because I know that cruise cabins are expensive, but I have a team.
And all four of my team members will be, well, four including me,
because I have to leave my pregnant fiance at home.
There's just
There's not a lot of information.
So we are three months out.
So credit where credit's due.
We got to get, maybe they're still working on ironing some stuff out.
What I do know is it's supposed to be on
They're supposed to put glass over the swimming pools
on the deck of the boat for an open air in the Bahamas,
I do believe will be ported in Nassau.
So but it will be on the boat. So that's really cool.
A lot of stuff that needs to be ironed out a lot of stuff to that,
you know, me as a fighter,
I feel like I just especially the main event should have,
you know, the the courtesy to know what that's going to look like.
And so yeah, we're battling for information.
But you know, they're gonna make they're gonna make me wait
probably just as long as everybody else on the cruise.
I'll probably roll up fight night and still not know what's going on.
Yeah, welcome to the fight game, huh?
Welcome to the fight game.
So, last time we spoke,
and you were coming off the great win at Fenway Park,
and I said, all right, what's next?
And you dropped sort of a bombshell, and I was really excited about it.
You said, man, I want to try out RAF.
I want to wrestle.
And, of course, you were a wrestler before,
and it's almost like, you know, BKFC, you know.
You know, combat sports a lot like the mafia and street life, right?
So it's almost like they said, no, no, no, no, no.
You're not going to RAF right now.
We've got other plans for you, which is cool.
You got to defend your belt.
It is what it is.
But what about the RAF stuff?
Because I know you had your mind on that and you want to try this.
My mind is, is heavily on it.
Uh, you know, my mind is heavy, heavily on a lot of stuff. You
know, like you said at the beginning,
we're in rematch mode and like fact of the matter is,
is Brian Duran outside of Miami does nothing for my career.
Like it really does nothing for my
career. You look up and down the top five of the BKFC.
Like I walked through, I dog walked every
single one of them, so like.
Between RAF, so here's my big goal.
Henry Cejudo put gloves on, okay?
He got out of the MMA scene.
He did some stand-up.
I would love to do a RAF wrestling match
against the Olympic gold medalist
and test how good I am.
Let's go f***ing wrestle.
Let's go do it.
I also want to...
explore options.
I just don't see Henry Cejudo
taking the gloves off. I do believe that he would be
a baby. He seems like a pretty boy that
doesn't want to get his face cut up.
All right.
But like,
imagine I wrestle in an RAF, beat
his ass there, so then we go do it
again, whether it's glove boxing,
bare knuckle. I love that guy.
You're big game hunting now.
You're tired of spinning your wheels. You're big game
hunting now.
Yeah. Big game hunting.
And really it becomes like, I have a baby on the way. I have a lot
of, uh, I have a lot of goals in my life
and in my career and at eight world, seven world titles,
soon to be eight world titles.
You would think that I would have achieved all my goals, but
my family is nowhere near protected.
Like I need my family to have protection. And if I can't get
that with the BKFC, we'll see what we got to do.
But like I said, I bleed black and yellow,
everything I get black and gold, black and gold. Cause I love this.
But at the end of the day, money talks, bullshit walks.
And, you know, I think RAF,
for not getting punched in the face, they pay pretty good.
You know, putting some plush cushions on to go to brand risk
or Misfits or any of the works to not take a bare knuckle to the face
and get paid more money.
Like, of course, I'm going to explore all those options.
But I'm not going to go fight Joe Schmo.
I'm not going to leave bare knuckle to go fight another Joe Schmo.
Line them up and knock them down as long as they pay me.
